Transportation Enhancement (TE) activities offer funding opportunities to help expand transportation choices and enhance the transportation experience through 12 eligible TE activities related to surface transportation, including pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure and safety programs, scenic and historic highway programs, landscaping and scenic beautification, historic preservation, and environmental mitigation. TE projects must relate to surface transportation and must qualify under one or more of the 12 eligible categories. See Program Brief.
On this site you will find program guidance, legislation, funding data, and links to further resources.
The National Transportation Enhancements Clearinghouse (NTEC) also has a website where you can get an introduction to TE, find out about the TE program in your State, see project examples, access a database of TE projects, see how States use TE funds, and order TE related documents.
